At Vashi.ie all online payments are secure and are processed by 128 bit encryption via a secure payment gateway. Our main provider is Sage Pay (formerly known as Protx), who have achieved the highest level of compliance under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI). Sage Pay adheres to the most stringent levels of fraud screening, ensuring that your details remain secure throughout the transaction process.

For added security we employ the 3-D secure protocol. 3-D Secure is an XML-based protocol designed to be an added layer of security for online credit and debit card transactions. It was developed by Visa with the intention of improving the security of Internet payments and offered to customers as the Verified by Visa service. Services based on the protocol have also been adopted by MasterCard, under the name MasterCard SecureCode. The basic concept of the protocol is to tie the financial authorization process with an online authentication.
